Thanks to technology, we have started to interview couples again. On this show we meet Bob and Patti Nowak who offer us some interesting insights into marriage. They give a unique perspective as their marriage is a fruitful one, blessing many in the community. In our next show we will present the wonderful lessons we learned from their interview. 

Beth White and Jenn Delvaux from the Office for Evangelization and Missionary Discipleship talk to Alessandro DiSanto, one of three founders of a Catholic Meditation app called Hallow available at Hallow.com or your favorite app store. This app was developed here in Chicago to help Catholics explore the richness of our Catholic prayer options. 

Beth White and Jenn Delvaux from the Office for Evangelization and Missionary Discipleship take a deep dive into personal prayer. They talk about why it is important for evangelization - you have to know who you are evangelizing. And they share a list of resources to help you develop or grow your prayer live (visit evangelizechicago.org for the list).
